My five piece band (pop/rock) has two new Peavey PR-15 speakers (8 ohms, 400 watts Program/800 watts Peak).
One of the band members just purchased a Yamaha EMX66M powered mixer...the Yamaha is advertised as having two, 300-watt amps. The specs say: "300W + 300W into 4 ohms; 205W + 205W into 8 ohms.
My two questions...
1. Is the Yamaha amp powerful enough for the Peaveys?
2. We'd like to use one of the amps on the Yamaha to power the main Peaveys, and the other amp to drive 3 monitor wedges, in series. I think the three wedges are all 8 ohms, although one might be 4 ohms. Will the Yamaha be able to handle the two Peaveys and the three monitor wedges?
Thanks very much for your help....!
